yeah that's basically the reason why i did it too. I found that the more distance between us the less right i have to feel lonely or abandoned by them because it would be me backing away before they have a chance to do all those things. plus like you said they cannot handle the pressure of someone who is depressed. all my friends who i made in a prgoram with kids that had trouble going to school.. Well now that im still having trouble they've taken on that role of asking me why im not going, not understanding and telling me i should go.. I hated it when people did that at my school and I thought of all people, these kids would get it cause they were like this too, but no.
